Chapter 48 Training

September 9 was a Monday, and because the reporting time was 9 o'clock in the morning, Zhou Nan got up very early. The change of clothes was already ready and packed into a lightweight LV suitcase.

As for other things, Zhou Nan also inquired with Old Brandt, toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap, lunch boxes, kettles, etc., which will be distributed in the barracks.

Audrey wanted to send it, but Zhou Nan refused and refused to help her ask for leave. The little girl can't stand the separation, and she always cries every time she encounters something like this, and today is no exception.

But before leaving, at the instigation of Kelly, she boldly hugged Zhou Nan for the first time and offered her first kiss.

This is not only her first kiss, but also Zhou Nan's first kiss, this kind of mouth-to-mouth kiss is a new thing for Zhou Nan, who has lived for ninety-five years in another life, and it also makes him extremely excited.

This excitement was a little daunting, and when he came to his senses, he found that he had not experienced what it was like at all. The patronage was dizzy, and the only impression was that it was soft.

So much so that he was reminiscing all the way, and he had the feeling of eating ginseng fruit in Zhu Bajie.

I want to experience more, and when I come back from training, I must experience this feeling again with Audrey, because this feeling is really good.

Kelly took a leave of absence this morning and came over with Zhou Nan, the sky is beautiful, and it didn't rain today. In September, the temperature drops to the teens, and when it rains, it drops below 10 degrees Celsius, so it's not hot.

Kelly carries his suitcase, and behind his bike, on the right side of the shelf, hangs a wooden basket with a low fence, which is John's exclusive throne. John squatted in the special seat that belonged to him, and he was more excited all the way, anyway, as long as he went out, he was happy. When it goes uphill, it jumps down, runs behind it for a while, and when it is lazy, it jumps into its throne again.

It took more than half an hour for Zhou Nan and the others to come to the training base in Emmen. It's a short distance from the city, and Emmen is also a city of 20,000 people, so the airport area in this suburb is much more lively than Meghan.

This military airfield is relatively large, there is also a military factory on the east side that specializes in the production of artillery shells, and the training ground is located on the west side of the runway of the airport.

took out the conscription notice sent by the Ministry of Defense and registered at the gate, Zhou Nan hugged Kelly goodbye.

Kelly was also a little sentimental at this time, and her eyes were red, but she couldn't hold back her tears and smiled reluctantly. "Jonas, you have to be well, don't get hurt again."

"Don't worry, I'll protect myself."

Walking into the training camp with luggage, there are very clear road signs on the roadside. But the scale here is not large, and there are few people, so that Zhou Nan is a little skeptical that he is in the wrong place. Boot camp, shouldn't there be a lot of people?

When they came to the registration office, Zhou Nan's identity as a foreigner surprised the two female soldiers at the registration office. After checking Zhou Nan's conscription notice several times and asking several times, it was finally determined that he had indeed come to report.

Switzerland has never been a country of immigrants, except for marriage naturalization, and now technical naturalization has not been officially implemented, so there are very few foreigners in this country.

Even though the country now hosts 300,000 refugees, at most some of them can get entry permits, and it is simply impossible to become citizens.

Then there are some top-notch talents from other European countries who can get immigration permission. Therefore, Zhou Nan, an Oriental, can become a naturalized citizen, although I don't know if he is the first Oriental to be directly naturalized, but for the people in the training camp here in Lucerne, it is indeed the first time.

Not only these two female soldiers, but even a few recruits who had already arrived early, were also very curious about Zhou Nan, and asked many curious questions while the instructor had not yet arrived.

Most of them are only eighteen or nineteen years old, and they are very curious about the outside world, and they ask strange questions, curious why Zhou Nan has no braids.

Only one man, over the age of thirty, was a newcomer of Bosnian origin. His German was poor, but no one here spoke Italian or French, and it took him a long time to learn that he was a mathematics lecturer at the University of Lyon.

When France fell a few years ago, he came to the family of his sister, who married Lucerne, and as a university lecturer, he was also a technical talent in demand in Switzerland. However, he was only recently admitted to citizenship because he did not speak German.

At nine o'clock, a tall man about fifty years old came to the room in a military uniform. He also glanced at Zhou Nan curiously and looked at the list in his hand. "Now all the people are lined up according to their height, and then they are named."

Everyone acted solemnly, and everyone knew that entering the barracks was premised on obeying orders.

Only Zhou You observed everyone's height and wondered, is there only ten of them in this phase of training? There are only ten recruits here, plus Zhou Nan.

Because of the small number of people, the formation was quickly arranged. Zhou Nan is 1.83 meters tall, and he belongs to the upper middle in this group of people, ranking third.

When everyone stood up, this instructor did not mean to give everyone a disgrace, but behaved very kindly. After introducing his name as Konrad Pol, when he was named, he chatted with everyone in a homely manner.

When he called Zhou Nan, he asked where Zhou Nan was from and why he had long hair. Zhou Nan showed him the wound on the back of his head and explained the reason why he had long hair, and he didn't force Zhou Nan to cut his hair short.

After walking over, he suddenly remembered again, turned around sharply, and looked at Zhou Nan carefully. "Where's your gun?"

Zhou Nan was also stunned all of a sudden. "Didn't the gun go into the barracks?"

Everyone else laughed, and he felt a little ridiculous. Shaking his head, he asked, "Didn't your naturalization papers tell you to go to the police station in the town to get a gun?" The barracks were only responsible for providing ammunition, and the guns needed to be brought by themselves. ”

Can it still be like this? Is the army still an army if it doesn't shoot guns?

Seeing that Zhou Nan really didn't know, Pol ordered a local young man and said: "Zgrad, you come and tell him that you have several years of experience in carrying guns!" ”

"I started shooting at the shooting range at the age of six, at the age of sixteen I had my first gun, and by now I have three rifles, a submachine gun, and seven pistols. ”

Zhou Nan was very surprised when he heard it, and he didn't understand what he, a nineteen-year-old boy, was doing with so many guns in his own home.

"Everybody has different features, and so does every gun. It is the right and duty of every citizen to own their own firearms. It is the responsibility of every citizen to dedicate themselves to the country and protect their personal safety, understand? ”

Seeing that he had a good attitude, Zhou Nan also said loudly: "Understood." But does this necessarily have anything to do with getting guns from the army and getting guns from the police station? ”

"Because each gun has different characteristics, when it leaves the factory, the ballistic test chart will be sent to the gun shop or police station with the gun to facilitate police registration, which is also for easy management."

This next week, Nan really understood the difference between countries that allow guns and countries that don't, so he is not used to holding a gun. But here, the state forces that you have to carry a gun, and you have to shoot at least 120 rounds a year to practice marksmanship.

However, allowing guns does not mean that the management is lax, because the whole people have guns, and in order to facilitate management, the management of guns has changed from the military to the local police station. Zhou Nan also had to go back to his town police station to get a gun of his own.

In the future, the responsibility for the management of this gun will be on Zhou Nan himself, if this gun kills someone, the police station will be able to find the owner of the gun through ballistic traces as soon as possible.

But what now?

Thankfully, there was no live-fire training on the first day.

In the morning, Pol took the ten of them to familiarize themselves with the environment of the training camp and let them get their own military uniforms and daily necessities. Then he took them to the dormitory, where ten people lived in a large warehouse with twenty-five bunk beds that could sleep fifty people.

Fifty people is also the maximum capacity here. Zhou Nan didn't understand, could it be that the 400,000 regular troops in Switzerland and the 450,000 auxiliary troops were all trained through such training camps? How many of these camps are needed!

At noon, Pol granted Zhou Nan two hours off to return to the Megan police station to get his gun. Because he called the police station in advance, Zhou Nan received the gun very smoothly, and it didn't take an hour and a half to go back and forth.

In the afternoon, there was no training, but gathered around to learn various rules and regulations, including singing military songs, marching salutes, and walking military steps.

After that, you will train for eight hours during the day, and you will have two hours of study time in the evening, and the rest of the time will be for personal hygiene and rest.

In this way, Zhou Nan began his military career, because he practiced every day, so the intensity of these trainings was not too high for him. The others were so tired that they didn't want to move, but he still had the energy to do the laundry and watch the training of the air force at the airport, which made others envious of his physical strength.

Because the training camp is right next to the runway at the airport, the only downside is that it's too noisy. Every time the plane takes off and lands, the noise is so loud that people can't sleep.

It wasn't until half a month later that everyone got used to this kind of sound, so that they would not be woken up when they encountered planes taking off and landing at night, and then they would have no energy to train the next day.

In fact, due to the lack of fuel, there are not many flight missions carried out at this airport, and the takeoffs are not frequent. If it's that kind of border airfield, where planes are on patrol duty all day long, the soldiers there are really pitiful.

Zhou Nan's results in the training camp are very good, in addition to his physical strength and the completion of various training tasks very well. He has another lifetime of experience in shooting, plus he is good at regulating emotions, and his marksmanship is also very good.

This also allowed him to get an A rating after a month and a half of training.
